Ugh. If the authors of a GUI program can't be bothered to put an option in their own options menus, then that option may as well not exist. Why can't they learn that? I searched every inch of Opera's options screens and never found *any* mention or reference to any "Disable AutoUpdate" or "opera:config". What the fuck did they expect? Clairvoyance? Omniscience?
I found it in a minute. First I tried opera help and it directed me to details about auto-update, which showed how to disable it. It is in the normal UI place for such stuff.
